  1. virtualization on Win4Lin 5.0 Reviewed · · Score: 1

    ...offers near-native (or better) speed "virtualization" of a Windows box..

    Alas, even linux can't really speed up Micro$soft software - it must alter reality and virtualize it for us...

  2. I predict... on Tom's Hardware Looks At WinFS · · Score: 1

    Sourceforge will soon have another project called LinFS that is compatible with WinFS.

  3. Mountain climbing... on GameCube ISOs Released? · · Score: 1

    Why does a mountain climber climb a mountain? - because it is there and to see if they have the balls to do it.

    Why does a geek hack and freak? - to see if it is possible and to see if they have the brains to do it.

    Very little difference between the two - I find people all of the time who confuse balls with brains. Generally though, sometimes it takes balls and sometimes it takes brains - rarely both at the same time.

    I don't condone piracy but this is the way most geeks learn about stuff they don't teach in school - by seeing if it can be done.

  4. ARRGH Cringely! on Do We Still Need Telcos (and ISPs)? · · Score: 1

    See what kind of ideas fester when you suggested that one could use Pringles cans for Yagi's...?

    I've been at a keyboard since before 10yrs old, and now, over 30

  8. Re:So does this mean... on Chinese Moon Base by 2012 - or 2006? · · Score: 1

    yes... you are correct when you say IANAPM.

    If you did smash the ball with no air resistance it would travel a good mile or so... The trick would be to barely touch the ball so it lands on the other side of the table.

  9. No way... on Microsoft to Clean Up Code · · Score: 1

    Microsoft has code cleaners mucking about with great regularity for some time now. Every MS security update introduces a slew of em...

  10. So does this mean... on Chinese Moon Base by 2012 - or 2006? · · Score: 2, Funny

    That Chinese will be the official language of the moon? and can you image the extremely slo-mo ping pong games that would be played?

  11. A mugging with squirt gun... on Shocking Clothing · · Score: 1

    and for the really rubenesque, water balloons...

  13. This post brought to you by the letter 'P' on Trend Micro Quarantines Letter P · · Score: 1, Funny

    I had a keyboard which had a bad 'F' key so I have to spell everything with 'PH' like "phat chance". If I was still using that keyboard I would have been in some serious trouble.

  14. Re:Wow... Simply Amazing... on Wristwatch USB Drive · · Score: 1

    I bet this will making cheating my collage harder when testing in the testing lab

    uh... I don't think "collage" looks like right, you might want to store a dictionary on the device which would take almost 128 megs of storage with a single byte free to store the number 42.

    Your all set dude!

  15. What are you talking about??? on Wristwatch USB Drive · · Score: 2, Funny

    The first 2 1/2 minutes of any movie is the FBI warning message telling you how bad it is to copy the movie. Unless of course you previously copied the movie and removed the FBI message...

  16. Loosing??? on Sun Announces New x86 Servers · · Score: 1

    This is where Sun is loosing the grip.

    Sun is setting loose "the grip"? better look out "the grip" will bite your ass...

  17. Well maybe..... on Death of Internet Predicted: Film at 11 · · Score: 1

    That guy who wanted to create a 802.11b wireless network from coast to coast did not have a bad idea after all....

  18. Re:Super Floppy on Floppy the Robot · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yeah, all those ads about an enlarged penis do not say it will ever get hard again....

  19. No that would be cool... on Wireless Computing and Airplanes? · · Score: 0

    You and a buddy could each use a PDA to secretly tell each other to drop something in the aisle. When the stewie bends over to pick it up - nice buttscape!

    Just like Pluto Nash's cool maid robot!

  20. There go the royalties.... on NASA Wires Chips With Nanotubes · · Score: 1

    Apparently, NASA botched the metric conversion and the nano tubes are actually 6 inches across.

  21. The old Saw??? on Did You Really Want To Read That Spam? · · Score: 1

    Hmmm, speaking of the goose and the gander, looks like you need a good goosing! Too bad you didn't post the URL of your website so /.r's could goose you. /. provides a valuable tool that inspires awe and admiration in each and every marketing department.

  22. Cutting edge??? Noooooo.... on FreeBSD 4.8 Released · · Score: 1

    We can't have newbies using the cutting edge stuff! The cutting edge stuff does not have the "evil bit" that detects whether a newbie is at the keyboard.

    just to fuck them up and keep them in their place...

  23. I told you so! on GZipping Life Forms: Deflate Reveals Bare-Bones · · Score: 2, Funny

    The Magic School Bus is true!

  24. Maybe not... on Shuttle Data Recorder May be Key to Accident · · Score: 2, Funny
